For forms of government let fools contest;
Whate'er is best administer'd is best.
For modes of faith let graceless zealots fight;
His can't be wrong whose life is in the right.
In faith and hope the world will disagree,
But all mankind's concern is charity.
Charity shall cover the multitude of sins.
Charity suffereth long and is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up.
And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity.
With malice towards none, with charity for all, with firmness in the right, as God gives us to see the right.
An old man, broken with the storms of state,
Is come to lay his weary bones among ye:
Give him a little earth for charity!
And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity.
He hath a tear for pity, and a hand
Open as day for melting charity.
Though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not charity, I am nothing.
Careless their merits or their faults to scan,
His pity gave ere charity began.
Thus to relieve the wretched was his pride,
And even his failings lean'd to Virtue's side.
Alas for the rarity
Of Christian charity
Under the sun!
Charity suffereth long and is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up.
In charity to all mankind, bearing no malice or ill-will to any human being, and even compassionating those who hold in bondage their fellow-men, not knowing what they do.
Charity suffereth long and is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up.
